• The trimmer has been especially designed for grooming
sideburns, moustache and beard.
The trimmer is not required for long hairs in the neck area;
these hairs can easily be shaved off with the shaving unit.
Charging
• We advise you to charge the batteries at temperatures
between 5° C and 35° C (40° F and 95° F respectively).
Charging at temperatures outside this range will reduce
the lifetime of the rechargeable batteries.
• Keep the cassette open if you charge the appliance in it.
- Slide the on/off switch (C) downwards.
- Insert the small plug firmly into the connector (E) up to the
indication mark.
- Then connect to the wall socket.
The green pilot light (B) will come on.
After 8 hours the shaver will be fully charged. This allows
cordless shaving for a period of about 2 weeks. The number
of shaves per charge is dependent upon your beard type
and shaving time. Regular cleaning has a beneficial effect
on this. (See section "Maintenance and cleaning".)
It will not harm the appliance if it remains connected to the
mains supply (max. 4 weeks).
Shaving directly from the mains
- Slide the on/off switch (C) downwards.
- Connect the appliance to a wall socket.
